SAN FRANCISCO , CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, October 8, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — Peter Loukianoff, founder and general partner at Modern Venture Partners, will be joining Jim Mohen, CEO of tingtech to discuss ‘The New Economy Underpinning NFTs‘.

NFTs – They’ve proved to be much more than a flash in the pan; it’s fair to say that the non-fungible token (NFT) market has turned more than a few heads in 2021. The sheer volumes poured through these markets to buy unique digital tokens with ownership verifiable via the blockchain have been unprecedented (even for the cryptocurrency market). The market has pulled in $2.5 billion In the first half of this year alone. NFTs are fast proving to be more than just a collectible and could disrupt global trade completely. In this Linqto Learn we get to grips with the business economics underpinning NFTs and what this means for the future.
